Please respond to the following question in
approximately two pages (double spaced). (Needless to say this should
be your own original work.)

In §10 of the Sixth Investigation, Husserl
discusses a feature which is supposedly common to several situations.
For example: (1) thinking ``that is my inkpot'' (while seeing my
inkpot); (2) thinking about my inkpot (``symbolically''), then seeing
it; (3) listening to a melody; (4) seeing a carpet which is partly
covered by furniture. What exactly are these four experiences supposed
to have in common? How are they supposed to be different? What does
this have to do with knowledge or recognition? What does it have to do
with the nature of perception in general?
